On Your Birthday

On Your Birthday Stamp Set

Here's a quick and easy birthday card using the new Pear Pizzazz pleated ribbon

Triple Treat Flower



Triple Treat Flower

This is one of the FREE Sale-a-bration stamps.  It's Triple Treat Flower.  I went directly to the Color Coach to get this color combination (since I'm so color challenged, it's the fastest way to look like I really know how to combine colors, NOT!)  I would have never put Rich Razzelberry, Old Olive and Pumpkin Pie together.  I really like it.  I used the new white baker's twine and an embossing folder (Big Shot) on the upper part of the card.  So much fun when it comes together.

Big Bird

Now this is a Big Bird!  This is a new die from Stampin Up.  This is larger than I anticipated.  This is amazing.  This card was entered in the card contest at Leadership.  (See the clothes pen on the top.)  She used Designer Paper and cut out those flowers.  At the bottom of the card, you can see the edgelite (new too.)  You will find both in the new Occasions Mini. 

Baby Card

A friend of mine just had a baby girl last night.  I started searching for baby cards.  Isn't this adorable?  I can't remember where I found it or who made it but I am definitely going to CASE this cutie.  Thanks whoever created it!

Array of Sunshine

Love this new Hostess Stamp Set, Array of Sunshine.  Here I've used two of the new colors, Pool Party and Island Indigo. 

You'll be seeing a few of these, I have been  playing with new colors.

One more Red White & Blue Swap...

I took a little different spin on this month's Red White & Blue Swap theme.  I used Circle Circus stamp set, of course, the Red, White & Blue ink and cardstock yet I made it into a summer birthday.  There are plenty of those July birthday's out there!

Hope you enjoy!

Watch for next month's swap, our theme is Christmas in July!

Ornament Punch

Wow!  Isn't this great?  The Ornament Punch is no longer just a Christmas Punch!  Look what Brenda created.  Love it!!!  The 'ribbon' on the right side is a new punch (sneak peak) featured in the 2011-2012 punch.

As promised, here is another one of my original summer mini swaps.  I used Sail Away, DSP and Heat Embossing.  Who knew I would like Choc. Chip, Marina Mist and Old Olive together?
